It's been a while now, but I spent an extremely uncomfortable night at Lyon St-Exupéry after an emergency landing of a Paris-Jo'burg A340 at around midnight, and that was Air France - the national carrier at one of the major national airports! No information, no food (meal had not been served), stuck in a departure gate lounge overnight with nowhere to sleep (except for business class passengers), every man for himself the next day to try and reach the destination.
